Robbeasy: You're making the mistake that is made most often by people playing this game - just going on the latest theory, the latest 'info' and not considering the rest of the game at all.
In most cases, I would agree with you. The thing is, I did not read this game before I joined -- which was at the start of this day, remember. And when I joined, I read everything in one go, so my memories of the previous days are perhaps better than average. And let me tell you, in this game, the early days are dull as dishwater. There's very little of value in this thread until about night 2.
Robbeasy: Granted I though Joe was the man at one point, but his 'trap' surely couldnt have been thought up and executed by a Mafia - if it is, then I salute him as a fantastic player and we have a new Mafia-playing superstar in our midst!!
Agree.
Robbeasy: Going back to his 'trap' - you going to risk all because I neglected to claim?? I DID post that i was keeping a close eye on proceedings, I honestly thought it was too obvious to be taken seriously, which is why I didnt feel the need to 'clear' myself, but I was also holding off in the faint hope that someone else may just put a foot wrong. Risking all on that - already pointed out weak 'trap' - is senseless.
I'm not buying that. By the time you posted, there was basically no chance of putting in a foot wrong. The trap was uncovered and out in the open, and it would take a complete idiot to be caught in it. I don't think anyone playing this game is an idiot.
Robbeasy: just for a simple example - nmillar dropping hammer on two days. Always has and always will be a scumtell, but glibly explained away as 'oh I always do this' - and we all just accepted it without a second thought.
My very first vote in this game was for nmillar (#415) and gave precisely that as a reason. It's not my fault that no one joined me (by the way including yourself, Rob).
Robbeasy: i really didnt think it was taken seriously, and I was waiting for Everyone else to react first, to best gauge who was Mafia. Fools rush in and all that.
Let me remind you that by the time you posted,
we had heard from everyone except you and ViolatorX.
Robbeasy: I've won a few and lost a few in Mafia games, but never been the reason / last man out. I dont intend to be now.
Actually, you have, in M3. And it was chiefly me who was responsible for that. The irony is delicious, I know.
